  2. The next build contest has arrived at PickAxis! Let's all hop to it and build what Easter means to us! After all the hard work that The Easter Bunny puts in to hiding those eggs, let's show him some appreciation with your fabulous building skills!

    From now until Midnight on Sunday 23rd April, let your creativity flow! You can hop right into the build contest server (/server buildcontest), claim a plot (/plot auto), build something awesome, then submit it (/plot done) before building ends on the 23rd! We'll announce the winners shortly afterwards.

    Check out the loot you can take home from this build contest below:

    1st place
    30 Coins
    2nd place
    20 Coins
    3rd place
    10 Coins

    And of course, teamwork makes the dream work! Teams can split the prize and glory!

    So, there are a few rules we need to cover quickly... First, don't go off and build anything inappropriate or offensive! Such builds will be disqualified and exiled to the bottom of the ocean. The Easter Bunny doesn't visit there. Second, be sure to make the build as creative as possible! Finally, be sure to submit your plot with /plot done when you're finished, so that we can find it for judging! Oh, and we'll be judging based on creativity, originality, and design.

    So, what are you waiting for?! Get out there and build something awesome!

  3. Hi Creeperking914, sometimes the application form doesn't load if you haven't been active on the forums much, if you are wanting to apply for a staff role, right now it would be best to do so via the talk to an owner board. Some of the things that we do look for in our staff ranks is activity both on the forums and servers, knowledge of the game and willingness to learn. 

    If I misinterpreted and you were looking to apply to join the server, then just pop on, it is an open server! play.pickaxis.com is the IP


  4. Mini Events Weekend!

    Greetings adventurers! We've got a treat for you during St. Patrick's Day weekend: on the 18th and 19th of March there are several events lined up for everyone's entertainment! Last time we did this it was massive--we hope you'll enjoy this one even more!

    More details will be coming closer to the weekend so keep an eye on the announcements, but we have some of our classic mini-events returning, including:

    • Maze Runner
    • Cross-Server Treasure Hunt
    • PvP Tournament
    • Spleef!
    • Sheep Racing
    • Find the Admin

    As is tradition with our mini games, we'll be running leaderboards, so on top of the fun of the games there will be prizes available at the end of the weekend! Later on, we'll also have a new build contest starting for Easter--I think you might be able to guess what the theme will be! ;)

    Mark your calendars for the 18th and 19th, 3pm PST is the kick off time!

    So, let's talk rules.  Yeah, we've gotta... I'll make this quick.  First, don't go off and build anything inappropriate or offensive!  I don't want to end up having to disqualify R-rated builds.  Second, be sure to make the build as creative as possible!  Finally, be sure to submit your plot with /plot done when you're finished, so that we can find it for judging!  Oh, and we'll be judging based on creativity, originality, and design.

  7. I know this has been delayed a bit but I thought I would put up a little post to let you all know how the weekend event went and to officially announce the winners of the events. Before I do any of that I would like to thank all of you that turned up and took part, you really made the weekend worth it especially as there was quite a good mix of new and old faces which is always excellent!

    A lot of the events we tried for the first time and I would love feedback from you all on what was good/bad/could be improved on so we can make future events better for you all!

    Some of the big shoutouts for me is for the following: @adensem for helping with the streaming, @pyrolily for the builds, @NickG365 for being the awesome guy he is and @SheTolerance for all the hard work she put in trying to make sure it was ready for you all!

    So, time for the day one winners:

     

    Skyblock PvP

    @killaboymol came in first place with a 100% kill record and over 10 kills in various game modes

     

    Parkour

    @vertigolf finally completed his own course in one go and was the first to do so, @TheLavaMobGuy was extremely persistent and came ever so close so definitely deserves honourable mentions for that!

     

    Now it is time for day two winners!

     

    Sheep Herding

    We had a 3 way tie on this event mainly due to time constraints and that was @adensem, @JasonPrimate and @perplecraze1 it was a lot of fun watching you all try and guide those sheep!

    Your prize is various baaaaaaaaaaaad gifts ;) plus some other rewards that have already been given! Congratulations and thanks for all that joined!

     

    Survival PvP 

    Yet again @killaboymol owned the PvP arena with @JasonPrimate winning a round and ending up in second place well done!

     

    Spleef

    This was an interesting event but a real pain to reset! In the two rounds @c_rex101 won one round with @ekhosonix winning the second so well done guys!

    I hope you enjoy your slime for the win guys, it was a good fight!

     

    Day 3 winners!

     

    Survival Games

    Can you guess who won in the mayhem that was the hunger games? Yes, you have it right it was @killaboymol with @Gsdcs coming in second place! If she didn't run away as much she could have actually won!

     

    Skywars Tournament

    There were 4 winners overall on this event and they were @JasonPrimate, @killaboymol, @Gsdcs and @adensem congratulations on the amazing wins guys!

    You will get some special gift from myself shortly guys, enjoy!

    Build Contest

    Due to a few difficulties there were no real one stand out winner so well done to everyone that took part and for those that are americans, please learn what independance day is actually about, the second event could have been better!!!

     

    UHC

    This event finished off the weekend and it was a long one but as with all the previous PvP events, @killaboymol won it quite unanimously!

     

     

    MVP

    Ok so considering the sheer domience in the PvP rounds and attending majority of the weekend I would like to thank @killaboymol for the performance and as such he has a special set of gear to celebrate the PvP awesomeness!

     

    Whilst it was a lot of work to try and keep it organised it was worth it for the fun that resulted so again thank you all for coming and making the weekend as great as it was. Special mention goes out to @Gsdcs from me for helping to corral the PvP players on day 1 and issuing gear as well as her comment on my stream that made me blush!

    I have an idea!

    1.9 gave us the mending enchantment, which repairs tools and armor via XP orbs.  Completing challenges gives up XP points, but does not apply to tools or armor with mending.  

    I know it would take a bunch of coding, but to make a token perk to make challenges XP points turn into orbs, that will go into the mending of tools or armor? 

    I think having that full time would be OP, so make it last for an hour, or so, each purchase.

    interesting, wonder if bottles of enchanting work?

    Yay! I can't wait! (especially since it's so close to my birthday)

    You can't stop talking about your 18th :P

     

    Guys, the drop system is about 50% full on survival and 20% on skyblock, so if you want it to be longer then 10 minutes keep donating!


  10. I like the token for cash idea but im not too sure on the quantity side.... $1 for 1 token seems high considering you could get $50 a day (not much I know but still enough to effect the economy) 4 tokens for $1 could be good or something inbetween, what do you guys think?
